SnowSchool at Home Activities for Every Week of Winter for Every Grade!
We’ve created a new winter-long series of outdoor SnowSchool activities and simple snow science experiments that can be right in your backyard (or local park, schoolyard etc)! Each activity has a short video to introduce it, and for those who are using SnowSchool for virtual schooling, online classroom or homeschooling, a corresponding activity/curriculum guide is provided.
Use the menu to the left to view recently featured videos and curriculum guides for each grade level. And you can view all content at any time by clicking “All Activities”.
To receive your SnowSchool bandanna be sure to complete every activity (including the preseason activity) record the results in your SnowSchool Journal and answer the discussion question that goes along with each activity. Learn more about the SnowSchool Journal here!
